Description: | Medieval lead seal matrix, pointed oval shaped dating to the 13th-early 14th century. The matrix has a central carved line motif of a crude fleur de lis with a surrounding legend. The legend is worn and is therefore not fully decipherable although appears to read S??ROGER [??] EIDNIR (Seal of Roger??). This is a personal seal with a rather unusual surname possibly beginning with EI although all the letters are not visible. The reverse of the seal has the usual attachment loop with a circular perforation. The matrix weighs 12.5g and measures 31.66mm in length, 21.65mm in width and 8.44mm in thickness. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Marshall, Anna - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
